Hi Jonathan,
So far, I've chickened out on lowering my dose. I did try once, a year ago, before I knew that having a few days of crying was a pretty normal response to lowering the dose; as soon as that happened to me, I got scared and went back to 150 and stayed there.
Right now, aside from the mild weight gain and lack of sexual desire, I feel very good and am thinking that maybe I should "leave well enough alone." That's why I was wondering what experiences other people had with trying lower maintenance doses. So far, it seems like it's just trial-and-error. Best, fluff
